Today is a Petals and Pedals kinda day. Come say hi! Hi-C and I are planning an overnight camping trip while M stays with her Nana (hi Nana Beck!). C plans on fishing while I'm going to bring some reading to while the time away. The overuse of the word "plan" is due to the thunderstorm forecast.

Rain or not, it's Friday and I'm ready for another edition of the familiar feelings of an all-too-short weekend. Some interesting tidbits to think about as you enter the weekend:

The idea of using dirty diapers for food production might not sit well for some, but I think this article is pretty thought provoking. We can sit on mountains of trash or we can rethink it.

M and I took 50 pounds of layer mash, 50 pounds of rabbit food, 2 kiddie pools, and 2 small waterers to them yesterday. It was amazing to see all the birds waddling around, quacking happily among each other. Of course, since M has learned the word "bird" she takes every opportunity to use it, so she was also quite happily diaper-waddling around repeating bird several times for each bird she saw.

And no. We're not getting any more animals. We're maxed out on the pets for a good long time.
